Posting belongings from UK or Porto to Santiago

[LuisaR]

Hi,

I am walking Porto - Santiago this summer.
Please could somebody give me advice on how I can:
1.) Post some belongings from the UK to Santiago and collect them 2 (ish) weeks later when I reach Santiago from Porto.
OR
2.) Post belongings from Porto to Santiago and collect them on arrival in Santiago a couple of weeks later.

Thanks very much!

LuisaR,
Check out this earlier thread for various possibilities re shipping from Portugal to Santiago.

Happy planning and Bom caminho!

I would consult @ivar who runs this forum. You want to make sure that your items won't get hung up in customs since you are crossing country borders.

If you ship from the uk to Spain, the receiver will be looked upon by spanish customs as importing goods from the uk. This means paperwork and delays… from Portugal this is not an issue.

Tuitrans will deliver directly from Porto to Santiago.

Or I used a company called Luggage Driver to send a suitcase from Lisbon to Santiago, and you can also send directly from Porto to Santiago.
